I remember OC from middle school and the fact that he could outrun me 2 to 1! He was quick! He was always friendly and smiling!

I immediatley smile when i see OC's photo- our days of playing little league baseball come to mind. My huband and I remember OC working at Barnaby's (do you remember that pizza joint?) and OC being very customer oriented (aka. free pizza).
OC had a kind a gentle spirit and I was delighted to call him friend.

O.C. and I go way back to when he used to ride his "chopper bike" all the way across town to Forrest St. just to push me off my little BMX "6 Crazycat", only to get me to ride all over C-ville until dark.

He was the fastest kid over 200lbs in the entire state, had the warmest heart for the ladies and always dressed sharp, as he roled through the hoods of C-ville blasting the latest R&B leaning to the side in that "cold blue caddy". That is how I will remember one of my best friends, I miss you "Big O".......

O.C. was one of my first friends when I started 4th grade at Venable. He gave me my nicknames deBear and Queenie. O.C. was like my own personal bodyguard, nobody crossed me when he was around! He was such a sweet spirit and a dear friend! He will be missed greatly this October.

OC was one of the greats! He was liked by all and you always knew what to expect out of him. He was kind and friendly. Just an all around great guy. I have absolutely NO bad memories of this guy. RIP, Homie!

I always smile when I think about O.C. he was one of my good friends and always had a great bear hug to give me. I was so sad when I heard of his passing. Miss you much, I'm sure your smiling down on us all.

Every time I see a kickball game I think of you. You taught me to pitch in 5th grade and got people to let me pitch during recess games so I could join the game. For a "couldn't field, couldn't kick well, couldn't run fast kid" it meant so much to be included. I eventually learned to bunt as well. Thank you OC!
